The third sensor monitoring the transport position is the jib boom sensor (Figure 32). The sensor
measures whether the jib boom is in transport position or not. The sensor is located at the tip of the
telescope boom on the top surface. The sensor is adjusted like the two sensors before. When the jib
boom is in transport position the sensor should be facing the notch on the boom. The led-light on the
sensor should not be lit when the boom is in transport position.

Figure 33: Upper boom sensor
Upper boom angle and telescopic boom outreach is monitored with a sensor which is located inside
the upper boom located in the front side of the access platform (Figure 33 (1)). The condition of the
outreach sensing cable is monitored by a capacitive sensor (Figure 33 (2)).
Figure 34: Inclination sensor
Chassis inclination sensor is located on top of the chassis next to the slewing ring. No adjustment
needed.
